5K-Läufe in der Nähe von Plantation

The Average Joe Run 5K in Miami takes place in Tropical Park, with a route that organizers say follows a beachside path. It is designed for both runners and walkers. The event calls itself the “World’s Easiest 5K,” fitting its relaxed setup rather than a competitive racing format. Fast runners are recognized with awards for the top three men and women overall, and for winners in several age groups. The race’s unique feature is the Average Joe and Average Jane award: the participant finishing exactly in the middle of the pack is honored as the top champion. Each participant receives a personalized bib, a dri-fit event shirt, and a finisher medal. The post-run gathering offers unlimited donuts and coffee.

The Devil Dog 5K & 10K Run/Walk begins at South County Regional Park, west of Boca Raton in southern Palm Beach County. Participants can choose between 5K and 10K run/walk distances, with additional Kids K and virtual race options available. This variety accommodates competitive runners, casual walkers, families, and those wishing to contribute remotely. The race derives its name from "Devil Dog," a Marine Corps moniker, and is organized by Marine veteran Wade Waddick. The event's primary goal is to benefit the Wounded Veterans Relief Fund, which offers emergency financial assistance to eligible disabled veterans in Florida and addresses gaps in dental care. For nine years, race proceeds have supported this fund. A recent edition raised $104,000, and organizers anticipate over 1,000 participants. Top finishers will receive plaques, merchandise, and shoes from Fleet Feet Delray Beach, while all participants get custom medals. The significant draw, however, is the community's support for local veterans, with friends, families, businesses, and service-oriented runners participating to aid injured veterans during difficult times.

Every Boob Counts is an annual 5K run/walk at South County Regional Park in Boca Raton, offering both in-person and virtual participation.

Participants run or walk in honor or memory of someone affected by breast cancer, with proceeds supporting Sharsheret and local community outreach programs. The event aims to raise breast cancer awareness, promote early detection, and connect community members with support and resources. Family festivities are part of race day, and the first 800 registrants are guaranteed a shirt and finisher medal, with shirt sizes distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Hollywood Beach Half Marathon & 5k is an October running event in Hollywood, Florida, offering a 21.1 km half marathon and a 5 km race. Both distances begin in Hollywood.

The Hollywood Beach Half Marathon & 5K begins at Hollywood North Beach Park in Hollywood, Florida. Runners depart at sunrise near the Atlantic Ocean.

This race takes place twice a year, in the winter and fall, typically in January and October or November, providing South Florida runners multiple opportunities to compete on the beach course. The route follows the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk, remaining close to the sand. Participants will experience ocean views, the sound of waves, and a sunrise over the water during the run. The event is included in the Elite Events South Florida Half Marathon Tour and attracts participants from across the United States, many of whom extend their visit into a weekend stay at local hotels. Its appeal lies in its straightforward format: a flat, beachside road race starting in a public park, utilizing the Broadwalk, and offering both 5K and half marathon distances on the same morning.
